RareTea Oakland offers a range of unique tea options, including a Thai tea with customizable sweetness levels and ice amounts. The roseflower milk tea is a popular choice, with a floral taste and sweet flavor from rose syrup. The store provides a generous serving of tea, creamy milk, and perfectly cooked boba in a larger cup compared to other places.
Customers enjoy the friendly staff and quick service. The popcorn chicken is a popular item, although some find the batter to be thicker than expected. Customers can order an assortment of drinks and often add lychee jelly or musubi, which are usually fresh and tasty.
The establishment is a favorite among locals, with one customer visiting frequently both alone and with friends. Customers can customize the sweetness level of their drinks, though some items cannot be made less sweet. During busy times, such as lunch hours and hot days, the cafe can become crowded, especially with students from nearby schools taking advantage of off-campus lunch.
